Sennheiser got in touch with Hifi Pig to tell us about their new IEMS to be launched at IFA 2017.

The MOMENTUM Free is an all-new wireless model in the MOMENTUM headphone family. The MOMENTUM Free features ergonomically designed magnetic earpieces that link together when not in use. The new MOMENTUM Free expands Sennheiser’s range of Bluetooth ear-canal headphones.

The MOMENTUM Free features Bluetooth 4.2 as well asQualcomm® apt-X™ and AAC codec support. Qualcomm® apt-X™ Low Latency compatibility also “enhances the ability to enjoy gaming or video content by keeping audio transmission perfectly in sync with the visuals”.

They have a six-hour battery life and a come with a leather case.

A three-button remote and in-line microphone for making calls and controlling music are integrated into the cable between the earpieces. Multi-connection with up to two devices at once and 3-way calling support are also provided. An intuitive system of voice prompts provides notifications on the pairing status and battery life.

Ear adaptors provided in four different sizes ensure a personalised fit in the ear canals for comfort and attenuation of ambient noise. Sennheiser’s MOMENTUM Free will be available from October.

Also announcing are the IE 80 S, earphones which offer “enhanced fit, and high-end style”. Sennheiser say they have a unique sound function and additional customisation features such as an interchangeable cable and memory foam ear tips from ComplyTM.

NFC one-touch pairing makes it simple to immediately connect to smart devices, while the headphone’s multi-connection capability enables simultaneous pairing with up to two devices such as a smartphone and a computer. It’s just as easy to use as a headset for phone calls thanks to an integrated microphone, 3-way calling and helpful voice prompts to notify the user of incoming calls.

The CX 7.00BT is facilitated by its ten-hour battery life. The battery can be fully recharged via USB in only 1.5 hours. The CX 7.00BT also supports USB audio via its supplied cable for times when wired used is preferred.
